About VIVAC
Preparation for the European Diploma in Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care Part II
The Viva Course (VIVAC) is intended as one of the tools for preparing for the European Diploma in Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care Part II examination, making the candidate familiar with the examination system and techniques.
The programme includes lectures and a mock EDAIC Part II exam workshop led by experienced EDAIC Part II examiners. Feedback will be given on every candidate’s performance, and every candidate will have the opportunity to observe other candidates and several examiners from different European countries in English language only. To ensure the confidentiality of everyone’s performance and a constructive work environment, participants must sign a non-disclosure agreement at registration. For optimal experience, attendees should prepare for the course as they would for an EDAIC Part II exam.
Registration is ongoing!
There will be two Viva Courses in 2026 :

The VIVA Course February 2026 has been accredited by the European Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (EACCME®) with 5.5 European CME credits (ECMEC®s). Each medical specialist should claim only those hours of credit that he/she actually spent in the educational activity.
